System Architect

In an increasingly connected world, the pandemic has highlighted just how essential telecom networks are to keeping society running. The Network Infrastructure group is at the heart of a revolution to connectivity, pushing the boundaries to deliver more and faster network capacity to people worldwide through our ambition, innovation, and technical expertise.

Join Optical Networks division, where innovation meets scale in the AI-driven data center era. With the recent acquisition of Infinera, weve united two industry leaders to create an optical networking powerhousecombining cutting-edge technology with proven leadership to redefine the future of connectivity.

As part of Nokias Optical Architecture group, you will have a unique opportunity to lead the design and architecture of novel coherent optical pluggable. You will be responsible for architecting and implementing new coherent optical portfolio in collaboration with our Systems Architecture, ASIC designer and Hardware and Software Development teams.

Develop innovative, competitive product architectures and requirements for packet-optical telecommunications products based on understanding of business requirements, use cases and applicable industry standards (like OIF, ITU, IEEE). Consider trade-off between cost, function, capacity, and performance. The products to develop include coherent optical pluggable to be introduce both in Nokia platform as well as another host
